Folks,
Tempers have flared. Angry words have been sent out to the list. We've all been mail-bombed by an angry member of the list (who wants off--NOW!).

I hope things can calm down a bit.

I would hope things would calm down a bit, as well. Sending a massive mail bomb to the list may have been innappropriate, but so is continuing to send unwanted mail to a user who has made repeated unsubscribe requests. Why are some of you insisting on waging a flame war?!! What do you intend to gain from such puerility? I am encouraged that at least some voices of reason are now emerging amidst all of this, and I would hope that the cypherpunks would try to understand the frustation of those who have their unsubscribe requests ignored and continue to receive unwanted mail.
